Clamp Positioning

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Hose clamps have been positioned at the factory for ease of assembly and removal in service. Clock positions are called out for all installations (refer to illustration). Clamps must be installed in designed position to prevent damage to other components.

All positions are given from the hose's point of view.
